Double check the instructions they give you, but that sounds right to me. You fax back those items to get the Packet 4 (Interview letter) and bring the rest of the items with you to the interview.

sounds good -- just make you don't sign the two forms you have to bring with you -- they want you to sign them in front of one of the officers. :)

Actually - about the signing part...

I'm not sure which consulate you're going through but Montreal wants you to hold off on signing, but our Packet 3 from Vancouver states they want those two documents signed before you head to the interview...

Just make sure you read the direction carefully, I was really surprised after hearing everyone else say not to sign them... that our directions said to.

Good luck!

Hey there, I just went through this phase when I recieved my packet three from Montreal I filed out the DS230 and the checklist and mailed them back ASAP, then I booked my medical and got the police certificate. All the stuff on the checklist besides the DS230 you gather together and bring with you to Montreal. My list specifically said file in BUT DO NOT sign DS156 and DS156K they are to be signed at the consulate during the interview. Other posters have also said it's a good idea to make copies of all original documents such as birth certificates and divorce degrees. So bring all original documents and the copies just in case they want to keep them. I sent the DS230 and checklist back xpress post with the requirment to be signed for that way you can track it and know exactly what time, date and even who signed for it when they recieve it. Which in my case was a good thing since when I called last week they said they didn't recieve the DS230 yet and I had the Canada Post slip and number. They did find it eventually. And just in case you didn't know you need a long form birth certificate, thats the one with both parents listed on it. Hope this helps. Oh yeah and any children if you have any need the same stuff and they also need the DS230 sent in with yours and the DS156 filed out. But children under 16 don't need the police certificate. They will need the medical too.
